Tara
Starting childcare for the first time was a big step for our family, but the warmth and care we’ve felt from the team made all the difference. From day one, they welcomed our daughter with open arms and genuine smiles. They pay close attention to her needs, including the little things like how her skin sometimes gets irritated and makes her uncomfortable. Knowing they are tuned in and ready to comfort her when she’s upset means so much. Hearing that “Hannah is doing better each day” fills our hearts with so much comfort. We’re truly grateful to have found such a nurturing and supportive environment for her.
Jhoanne

They were right, the staff are caring and professional, the environment is safe and welcoming, and our child is just happy every day. Truly a place we trust!

Childcare Funding Support For Families
The Government has introduced the 3 Day Guarantee, which provides all CCS eligible families with a minimum of 72 subsidised hours per fortnight, no matter your work, study or training hours.
Oz Education Early Learning Centres offer flexible hours – 9, 10, 11 or full day long daycare sessions to help minimise your out-of-pocket expenses for childcare and save further. If your family is entitled to a maximum subsidy of 95%, your fees could start from as little as $12 a day, depending on the centre.
Oz Education centres in New South Wales are approved for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) and participate in the NSW Start Strong program.
